Footwear Watch: Spurr, Duckie Brown

The latest in a series of posts covering Fashion Week from the ground up

One of the best parts of spring dressing: suede shoes, which tend to get packed away—the better to protect them from the snow and slush—during the fall and wintertime. Simon Spurr greeted the season with Grenson suede oords whose selling point was their beautiful simplicity (above, left). (He made a strong case for that European staple the espadrille, too; his were from myCATS [above, right].)

At Duckie, Steven Cox and Daniel Silver went for suede bucks, too, but simplicity wasn't the draw there. In their second collaborative collection with Florsheim, the duo did up the classic buck in neon-bright cerulean blue and citron yellow (below).
